Roy, Don't know if it is a rebuilt tranny, but if it was it was done 12 years ago. 13,000 since the build. Once I've backed it out of the drive and drop it down into what I think is low gear it starts off and then shifts itself into the next gear. Obviously it's not going down low enough to get into 1st. So, after I drive it a while and stop THEN it allows me to drop the Lokar shifter WAY down and it goes into 1st gear and STAYS there until I shift it into 2nd. This is what Al and I did the day I reported to you all that I had determined that the tranny was in fact capable of shifting through all the gears. Don't know why it won't let me shift it down into 1st when it's first started.
Thanks again everyone for your interest in my problem.
